laz97 0 Posted July 29, 2008 Thank you so much for your support and the info on the yahoo groups. I will have to check them out. My new Dr. is Dr. Watson, here at UT Southwestern Medical Center, where I work. He is really nice and really encouraging. I see him again tomorrow. He has had me on a liquid diet with just Water and Protein Drinks since Friday, so I am eager to see him and see if I can eat some food again. He is going to take out more of my fill tomorrow, and then on August 29th he is going to have me do another upper GI and see me again. But I have lost 6 pounds since Friday. I am happy about that.:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rdbiles@sbcglob 0 Posted July 30, 2008 I'm not sure I know enough about slippage other than what I've read on the news boards from other bandsters. I've heard major vomiting will cause this and I'm not talking about PB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rdbiles@sbcglob 0 Posted July 30, 2008 How much does dr. watson charge for fills and does he perform them under flouro? By the way I graduated from the medical center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
